Cell Comparison Brown Bag Project

Students will create a project using every day items to represent the different cell organelles. They will be given a brown bag to use as the cell membrane (allows some items to leave such as water, but keeps other items like a lunch inside).

Students are to use the lists of either the Animal or Plant cell organelles to fill their bags. Each organelle must be represented by a picture of the item or by the actual item. Students are then to provide a description as to how the item represents the organelle.

Examples:
Battery = Mitochondria
Brain = Nucleus
BBQ = Ribosomes
